Definitions
- the present invention relates to a pnarmaceutical composition which includes a statin cholesterol lowering agent and aspirin m a manner to minimize interaction of aspirin with the statin, for use in lowering cholesterol and reducing risk of a myocardial infarction, and to a method for lowering cholesterol and reducing risk of a myocardial infarction employing such composition.
- statins for lowering cholesterol and preventing or treating atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease and cerebrovascular disease are well documented. In fact, it is not uncommon that patients having elevated cholesterol levels who are at high risk for a myocardial infarction take both a statin and aspirin. However, use of both a statin and aspirin may require special care to insure that drug interaction, including physical and chemical incompatibility, and side effects, are kept to a minimum while achieving maximum benefit from these drugs .
- statin is an acid
- statins such as pravastatin, atorvastatin and cerivastatin
- statins alkali salts
- pravastatin is also a very acid labile compound.
- pravastatin and aspirin are combined, the aspirin could cause pravastatin degradation which could result in lower bioavailability of pravastatin.
- Aspirin is known for causing gastrointestinal bleeding when used for long-term therapy It is therefore
- statin-aspirin formulation which provides for maximum cholesterol lowering and reduction of risk of a myocardial infarction without the undesirable side effects and drug interaction normally associated with use of such combination.
- a pharmaceutical composition which includes a statin cholesterol lowering agent and aspirin, which provides for maximum patient benefits including maximum cholesterol lowering and reduced risk of a myocardial infarction with minimal physical and chemical incompatibility (including minimal statin: aspirin interaction) , and reduced side effects normally associated with use of such drugs.
- a method for lowering serum cholesterol, preventing or inhibiting or treating atherosclerosis, and/or reducing risk of or treating a cardiovascular event or disease including coronary artery- disease and cerebrovascular disease, wherein a pharmaceutical composition containing a combination of a statin cholesterol lowering agent and aspirin in a single dosage form, in a manner so as to minimize interaction of the statin and aspirin, is administered to a patient in need of treatment.
- a pharmaceutical composition wherein the statin (including any statin cholesterol lowering agent) and aspirin are formulated together in a single tablet.
- the tablet of the invention is preferably in the form of a bilayered tablet which includes a first layer and a second layer.
- Aspirin in the form of granules of preselected size will be present in the first layer together with optional excipients as described hereinafter, while the statin will be present in the second layer which optionally may include one or more buffering agents (as necessary to prevent undesirable statin/aspirin interaction) and optionally one or more excipients as described hereinafter.
- the bilayered tablet of the invention may include an outer protective coating or finishing layer as described hereinafter.
- Another embodiment of the present invention comprises a cored tablet which includes a core and a buffering layer or outer coat which can be compressed onto the core as a dry coat.
- the core will preferably include compressed aspirin granules while the buffering layer or outer coat will include a statin (including any statin cholesterol lowering agent) together with one or more buffering agents and optional excipients.
- Provision of aspirin in the core and statin in the buffering layer will effectively reduce the aspirin side effects and also minimize drug incompatibilities while providing maximum efficacy.
- the so-described cored tablet may also optionally include an outer protective coating or finishing layer as described hereinafter.
- a pharmaceutical composition which is in the form of a tablet or capsule which includes a mixture of aspirin granules having an enteric coating and particles or granules of a statin.
